Hopefully, you got our email last week, informing you that next month, we officially consolidate our brands and become one to the outside world. If you missed it, you can click and catch up here.
That means a goodbye to Para-Sols, Apricity and The Art of Finance as we know them, and instead a big hello to a full-service offering from The Verve Group. Those of you who have followed our growth over the last 14 years will know that we thrive on innovation, ambition and exhilaration and so it'll be no surprise to learn that in the last 18 months we've been working away behind the scenes on the final piece of the jigsaw - the masterpiece that brings all of our threads together.
And that masterpiece is calledDextera(or Dex to us friends!) - our new technology. It cements our consolidation as one, is the underpin to all of our services and what we are sure will be your new best friend.
Just some of the highlights you can look forward to.
Ability to access all Verve services from one simple, easy to use dashboard.
Additional features to help support you manage your team and firm.
Intelligent CPD tool and annual testing for the full team.
An extensive resource hub, full of templates and guides for you to use.
In-built compliance framework calendar and registers.
Option to access additional technical support.
From Monday 3rd July, instead of logging into Rise or the Apricity system, you'll be redirected to log in to Dex to submit and manage all your projects with us. It replaces our exisiting systems but also, offers so much more.
See Dex in action.
To make sure that you become acquainted with your new best friend, we're running a host of demo sessions so you and your team can have a good look round the new technology, explore the additional features and also have the chance to ask any questions.
As we said last week, we'll be in touch weekly to make sure you're the first to know about our developments and if/what any of the changes mean for you. Next week we'll delve into the nitty gritty detail such as your access levels (depending on which service we currently provide for you), further information on pricing changes (don't panic - no major hikes here!) and our plan to migrate your data (again, don't panic - it's no extra work for you and your team!)
That's it from us this week but if you have any questions, don't hesitate to drop a member of the team a line at hello@weareverve.co.uk or call us on 01325 952116 (psst, update your address book with this, it'll be the new central line number, eventually!).
